Description

In collaboration with The Gaia Foundation’s campaign “We Feed The UK”, Belfast Exposed presents “The Clean Blue of Linen” by Yvette Monahan.

The Clean Blue of Linen is an evocative new photography project by Yvette Monahan, documenting the role of chemical-free flax from Mallon Farm in County Tyrone in local supply chains. Commissioned by We Feed The UK, Yvette’s work forms part of a national storytelling campaign connecting photographers and poets with our most inspiring food producers, seeking to raise public awareness of positive solutions to climate change, wildlife recovery and social justice.

At the heart of The Clean Blue of Linen is the remarkable story of Mallon Farm’s Helen Keys and Charlie Mallon who are reviving chemical-free flax farming as part of a diverse, sustainable agricultural model. Their efforts breathe new life into Northern Ireland’s once world-renowned linen heritage, but their work is not solely a nod to heritage. It has been rejuvenating soil, waterways and wildlife as part of a shared endeavour to strengthen resilience in the Northern Irish food and farming system.
